Legendary Items that Never Existed

[Edgar]

I thought about asking this for awhile now. Back in the day on live there was a member of one of the top raiding guilds who was quite famous, we has very nice to all, and was well known to have a lot of plat. He collected rare items and for months to over a year he auctioned off:

"WTB -(Gloves of the Ritual) offering 1 mil plat" - after thinking about it, he might have said the name was something like (Nexus Gloves of the Ritual)

I know for a fact he didn't do it as a joke. He really thought these gloves existed and I asked him what made them worth 1 mil plat and he said they had right click gate of the nexus that all classes and races could use.

So did such a myth of a item on your server exist? do you recall what the item was or what made it so special? We know of items that were very rare with limited drops or nerfs, but what are the items that NEVER existed.

He also said these gloves were tradeable, so I don't think such a item came from a GM event; however, if such items ever came out of a GM event I would also be interested in hearing about other GM items that you would never have known to exist. I know of the "oogly stick" that was right click troll illusion, but I have found that item in eq databases.

(This was late Luclin era for me, but I figure this question applies to all eras)

Well there was an item that casted Nexus gate; it was given out as part of the lead up to Luclin release.

original veksar trash droped wurmslayer kinda weapons with bane dmg 200 to dragons named wyrmslayer.

Removed 1 hour later after they launched it in stormhammer server.

[Edgar]

I seem to recall that he told me that the gloves had a long cast time of like 20 seconds. I wonder if the idea of the gloves existing came from the GM item that Ele mentioned.

Stormhammer was the legendary server that cost more to play and had unique items compared to the other servers correct?

That armor was called "Green Splint Mail" or something. For some reason, everyone thought it existed somewhere (Aradune probably said it did). There's nothing more classic than people claiming daily that they found where Green Splint Mail dropped.

I used to auction 'WTB - Pants of Irritation'. Got a lot of comedic value out of some of the tells.

[Hughie]

I had an Al`Kabor's Propylon of the Nexus and the "of the Nexus" title, dem was the days. 4 people per server. It was from a gm event in Dreadlands.

[fahlen]

Rumor went rampant back in these days. XX has a hidden proc, (Lamentation on my server) which is why it is so amazing. I wonder how many others dealed (or better yet, created) with the "hidden proc". Also being 15 years old at the time didn't help.

[Teerian]

Ele and Hughie nailed it. Either the guy was misinformed or it was a special item from the legends server thing that he had no chance of seeing. On normal servers, the propylon artifact was the only item with the Nexus gate effect, and with a 20 second cast time like you mentioned. There were only four max per server, and it was locked to those who won it since it was No Drop like all of the other artifacts I remember. It was such a nice item to have, even long after Luclin, so I'm not surprised the guy clung to the hope that a tradeable version existed.

[Ladytron]

if i remember correctly gms often created their own items that were insane

on vallon zek i remember there was a particular GM that dealt with LnS rules and had an item that he could insta cast knock back and would force the player that /petitioned about abuse over LNS he was too hard headed to actually leave for an hour and honor the damn rule would throw them thru the zoneline and say dont come back for an hour lmao

[Korben]

I do remember back on live, I'm pretty sure it was a rumor stated to drive the price up, that centi long swords were going to be made lore and the "pre nerf" ones had their price doubled overnight.

Man, I forgot about those things. I kept one bagged even in OoW simply because I loved the graphic.

[Aussie]

There is afew legendary items that do actually exist. Dev items gone wrong etc. I'm talking about on live servers here.

+100dmg aug's that fit any weapon slot - I know of two in existence on FV server.

Instant heal clicky ring (Paladin LoH spell)

[Ambrotos]

This will help. Also the FA had a messed up proc and it did the DD per tic and would stack. We had a paladin solo Gore that way during kunark. Was nuts.

This is reported to have been awarded to one ranger per server after winning the Best of the Best competition in 1999.

It's also been reported that this is false, and that it actually came from the GM event "The Demise of Ghargin Dumblok" which happened following the kidnapping and rescue of Firiona Vie after the launch of Ruins of Kunark.

The item lore ("Bow passed down by the Oakwynd family") is in reference to the end of the event in which the troll Ghargin Dumblock was slain by Lyirae Oakwynd with the bow, avenging the death of her twin brother Loriysn. On some servers, the bow was even given to classes other than a ranger.

[Kekephee]

I have this bow on firiona vie server, i bought it from Versihle (the winner of the BOTB on our server) 2years ago, i paid 14.6 mil for this bow and i think it was a great deal.
at level 1 the bow hits for mid 30's-40's at lvl 10 60ish with 100+ crits from time to time, but at level 20 i was shooting for 200+ and critting for 430ish.
My chars name is Moogu on FV and i will show anyone who wishes to see it :) and since its on FV server it doesnt have the "no drop" tag. the bow is NOT for sale so please dont ask how much im selling it for etc,etc.
its currently parked on a lvl 30 woodelf ranger


FV droppable everything loot so suck
